farlaSo it's working, but I'm considering if it needs to be reworded.
See, the idea was, people who wanted multiple reviews would review their way through the story. Thus far, however, the first person read the whole of Inheritors and then reviewed (technically a second time, because they stopped on an early chapter just to make a guess), the second reviewed the first chapter of Butterfly Wings (admittedly, giving a perfectly good review in the process) and the next two decided to review the first chapter of Tribulations.

Chapter review exchange
You really stay true to form. You're very methodical and realistic with the details. Pastor Matthew gave detailed steps on how to get through an apocalypse. It is very to the point. I wonder if this is your writing style or do you keep yourself at an emotional distance from your characters because what you are writing about is disturbing. End of world, The Beast...who hasn't grown up hearing and dreading this? End of days is the one scary story that stays with you through adulthood, it never gets old.
You possess a precise, clinical view down to the ' use aliases when buying guns so they don't trace it back to the church." I am curious to see if there is a personal character study from one of the characters like Adiala or Noah. I'm really nosy to understand how the Pastor feels at such a time as this. Looking forward to reading more.
Look, people. Once upon a time FFN didn't offer stats unless you paid for them, but that was well before your time. These days, you have two different kinds of stats available to you, and with a bit of thought should realize this means that I too have stats on my stories available to me.
This means that if you review the first chapter of a story that isn't in a high traffic area, I can tell you didn't read beyond the first chapter, okay? And I can also probably tell you only clicked on that sequel and not the original. So don't tell me you can't wait to read more. If you wanted to read more you'd have read the next five chapters. In fact, generally don't tell me that the story is good and I should keep writing. If you're not interested for some reason, say that. Otherwise I'm just going to assume your review is a string of generic comments that may not have anything to do with the story.
